	South Carolina Aquarium The South Carolina Aquarium showcases South Carolina’s diverse natural habitats, from upstate mountains to extensive Lowcountry marshes and coastline. Imagine an evening gala for 300 in the dramatically-lit, multi-level Deep Ocean Gallery or an early morning breakfast meeting for 50 on a sweeping terrace overlooking historic Charleston Harbor! Our staff can help you plan a variety of themed events with docking access nearby for guests to arrive by boat.
	USS Yorktown Patriot’s Point Naval and Maritime Museum is one of the most-visited attractions in the Carolinas. The centerpiece of Patriot’s Point is the world-famous aircraft carrier USS YORKTOWN, a heavily decorated warship that played a vital role in America’s victory in the Pacific during World War II. A versatile venue, the Yorktown lends itself perfectly to a casual M.A.S.H. or U.S.O. theme, as well as a seated patriotic dinner, with the sounds of Duke Ellington style music. Dinner can be served on the flight deck or in the hangar with hangar doors open on each side to provide cool breezes and spectacular views of the Charleston skyline.
	Citadel Beach House Located on the Isle of Palms, The Colonel Robert McCormick Beach House is a perfect place for guests to enjoy the sun, sand and salty air and host a traditional Carolina Beach Party. Introduce your guests to "the Shag," South Carolina's state dance or provides the opportunity for outside activities such as a game of Horseshoes, Volleyball, Badminton or Frisbee tosses. Can accommodate 140 guests for a seated indoor dinner, or 500 for dinner on the lawn and an unlimited number of guests for a reception.
	South Carolina Society Hall The South Carolina Society was organized in 1737, by French Huguenots who first called it the "Two Bit Club," as members agreed to contribute 15 pence ("two bits") a week for the relief of a Huguenot tavern owner. Society Hall boasts a ballroom, meeting rooms, a dressing area, an elevator and a full kitchen, perfect for private and community receptions, weddings and other special events. Located a stone's throw from Charleston's historic "Four Corners of Law” this gracious facility can accommodate up to 120 guests for a seated dinner, 300 guests for a reception.
	Charleston Yachting Experience Water works when it comes to creating a memorable special occasion in Charleston. Escape on your own private yacht and be prepared to be pampered by captains and crews who have hosted guests from around the world.
	Innisfail ~ (Capacity 50 Guests) Built by legendary yachtsman and Irishman, Joseph A. Cunningham, this famous yacht is named after the ancient Celtic word for Ireland. Only 1 of 4 left of its kind, the Innisfail has served as an independent luxury vessel, shore patrol boat during WWI and a government service yacht for countless presidents. Now restored to its original furnishings, the yacht rests comfortably in the Charleston Harbor.
	Blue Moon ~ (Capacity 12 Guests) Motor yacht Blue Moon was built for a Hollywood mogul in 1963 and is considered one of the “Vintage Luxury Charters” of the world.

	The Schooner Pride ~ (Capacity 49 Guests) The Schooner Pride, an authentic TALL SHIP, sails Charleston harbor and the surrounding waters. With the engine off and sails full, the 84 ft. The Pride quietly glides along our coastal waters, while guests can sit back enjoying the sounds of dolphins, gulls, wind and water or be part of the expedition and help with the sailing. The Schooner Pride, with a courteous crew of four, carries up to 49 guests.
	Gaillard Auditorium The Gaillard Municipal Auditorium, built in 1968, is a multi-purpose facility rented for events of all kinds from Broadway productions to rock concerts or conventions to trade shows.
